A Little Gloating

[Conner]

Hockey is one of the few areas where we Canadians get to kick US butt.

 

It feels so good!

 

Canada: 7 US: 4. The last two Canada goals were into an empty net.

 

It was a spectacular game...just great hockey. What made the win all that much better for me was that Canada came back from a 3 - 0 deficit. Actually, our power play is what saved us.

 

I must concede that the officiating was less than spectacular. The US coach had some succinct remarks on that after the game and he had good reason.

 

It's not over, though. This game concluded the round-robin portion of the championship. I expect that Canada will meet Russia in the semi-finals and the US will meet Sweden. Of course, I'm hoping for a Canada - US final. Should be a another great game!

The US has a hockey team? Whatever, congrats on their victory. Yay.

Hockey doesn't matter...

You know, if Canada had one of those homeland security departments, you would have been immediately placed on the suspected terrorist list.

Woohoo!

 

For a self-described hockey nut, I've been completely out of the loop on both NHL and World Juniors this past week. Probably because there was zero coverage in the media where I was. I must do some catching up now.
